While [Jesus] was speaking [to Peter and John and James on the mountain], a cloud came and overshadowed them. And they were afraid as they entered the cloud. A voice came from out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him.” When the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They kept silent and told no one in those days anything they had seen. (Luke 9:34-36)
The icon is of the Transfiguration of Our Lord, God and Savior, Jesus Christ (August 6th).

While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him.” When the disciples [Peter, James, and John] heard this, they fell on their faces and were filled with awe. (Matthew 17:5-6) You were transfigured on the mountain, O Christ our God, * revealing Your glory to Your disciples as they were able to bear it; * through the prayers of the Mother of God, * let Your everlasting light also shine upon us sinners. * O Giver of Light, glory to You. (Troparion) August Please continue to pray for for a swift and peaceful conclusion to the wars in Ukraine, the Middle East, Ethopia and every conflict worldwide.
